Seal Surprises Rescuers!!
An unusual seal rescue - first, Denzil almost knocks himself out when he bumped the vehicle's mirror with his head, and then the seal decides to reverse into the net, instead of diving into the net head first. The rescuers had no choice but to release him and catch him again. Luckily they succeeded, because he had a deep cut around his neck caused by a loop of commercial fishing line.
The wound seemed clean and we expect the seal to make a full recovery with the healing powers of the salty ocean. 🦭

Denzil you could be an Olympic runner but I’m glad you are where you are. These guys - the seals and the team - need you. Thanks for your hard work.

Ouch, Denzil! Hope the mirror didn't leave too much of a bump, and that you didn't have sand in your teeth for long!

When I am in the US with my Alberta plates, I am invariably asked where Alberta is. When I have my Calgary Flames flag, I don't get asked where Calgary is. Anyways, this seal rescue video is very international. And the top post is an international greeting. I am sorry about the fingernails on the chalk board. I was just communicating in an international way. Saludos mi amigo.

Denzel is crazy fast! That was impressive
Denzil is so fast you had to put the video into slow motion to see him fall down and get back up!
I saw Denzel go down and was concerned, then he went flying past the car, definitely a pro!
I like how your order of priorities is: 1. Make sure the seal is secure in the net, and confirm that you caught the correct one 2. Ask Denzil if he's alright 3. Laugh at Denzil
Thank yo so much bless all of you and stay safe
Denzil lives up to his nickname, the Flash! He fell but was up in less than a second and secured the seal in the net! I'm also very impressed by the fact that the seal actually turned himself around in the net. Very impressive rescue, OCN!

I have seen many of these Videos and have never seen anyone trip over a Seal whilst running through a huge group of Them or stumble whilst jumping off the truck until now . Poor Guy went from Superman to being a " Beach Torpedo " ,then to becoming a "Rescue Ninja ".
Great recovery Denzil, you were up and running before I had time to gasp at the fall.
Man, you have a great team! I don't know how you can keep an eye on the one you are after when they all start moving. Just amazing!

Hey Denzil, don’t do crazy things like that, please! I’m sure seals wont appreciate you unable to help them because of a bad fall! Thanks a million for all your rescues.
Denzil, grace under pressure. Good recovery, good job to the whole Seal Rescue Team!
I'll say thank you for him 😍😍
Denzel had a "sand"wich : ) Thank you guys and God Bless : )
Wow, Denzil was already up and running before we even realised he had a fall! Good job in saving another seal! 👍🏻
Sometimes things do not go as planned, even then you still come shining through and save the seals
Quite the comedic rescue, with the exception of the wound, of course. Glad Denzil is okay after that face plant!
Denzil recovered like a champ! Good job guys!
Great to have a good team to get the job done fast and efficient.🙏🏼♥️
Zero points? That's what Denzil wants the seals to think. Brilliant!
This catch had everything, face-plant dismount, backwards seal in the net, and a satisfying seal save to finish, so good. Glad Denzil is ok after his fall guy impression, when I was around 10 I tried to do similar when getting of the bus from school, the driver had opened the doors before we stopped, I figured I could jump out running, nope, good job I had been training in Judo so knew how to forward roll safely before I face planted the tarmac, gave the kids on the bus a laugh.

The seal was like: "HAHAHA! I've beaten your game of catch the seal! I'm free to go n-- OH NOOOO!"
I always feel sympathy for the seal because I’m sure they think they’ve met death when they’re captured in a net
I'd forgotten how entertaining this rescue was. Ahhh, Denzil. I have no idea how he recovered from his "dismount" so quickly but he was still gone in a Flash. The seal was a naughty little bugger too. Thanks fellas. ☮️
I can't help but laugh when Denzil hits the mirror.... I feel bad for that, sorry Denzil. Nice save getting back up that quick though!
GOD bless you!!!
I hope Denzel was ok the next day. Strange things can happen after the adrenaline wears off.
Yay the acrobat seal was caught, released from his dangerous necklace and is now happy to go on his way. Thanks guys great job even in crazy situations. ♥️👍

10 on the dismount and 10 on the recovery and 10 on attitude.
The seal’s quizzical wide-eyed expression on his little face - peeking out from being the wrong way round inside the net - as he was being pulled facing forwards up the beach, & you could almost see him thinking: "I never knew it was possible to move so effortlessly on land, without bouncing along with my flippers!" He [probably _extremely_ briefly!] seemed to be momentarily enjoying that part of his weird experience!😯☺️
Adore your work and professionalism and thank you many times for your good doings ! God bless
How the heck did Denzil manage to hone in on that one seal? There was quite a crowd and then they moved! Great job gentlemen!
He didn’t even miss a step!! Way to go Denzil! Sounds like you had a fun day all around!
